Lol. That’s exactly the same one I have that broke with the bad 1/2 side memory bank… LOL….
I’d try it with Amex anyway. I seriously doubt they would be figuring out whether it’s refurbished or not..
Worst comes to worse, if you’re just having a logic board problem and you go to the apple store, you’re out just $209 which isn’t that bad…[/quote]
Great… I suppose I’m in for trouble then since I swapped out all the RAM for 16GB of aftermarket, and moved the original HDD to the secondary bay to install an SSD.[/quote]
technically you already voided the warranty when you took out the HDD.. Because they only thing they allow you to do is swap memory. If you took out the motherboard yourself, technically you voided the warranty.. Kinda like modifying your car with a chipped ecu or putting on bigger turbos… But I doubt amex will know or care. If you want to be safe, return your Mac back to stock before you take it in for repair.
The apple folks at the store I’m sure were thrilled that after they repaired my logic board, I tested it by booting into Ubuntu first and then Windows 8, and then when they asked me about if I wanted to check the OSX Lion partition, I told them no worries, because I rarely use it these days… That and I asked them if they could s-beam me my receipt to my Galaxy S4, totally forgetting I was in an Apple store…Oops…
For those with Costco Amex… will the warranty extension work with things like water heaters and disposals and other things that tend to crap out on my rentals?
